One Heart, Two Hands

By Angelin Hope Dalton

Before the Cradle is a deeply personal and poetic journey through the raw, radiant, and resilient experience of single motherhood. Told through six emotionally rich chapters, this collection explores the quiet beginnings of pregnancy, the chaos and wonder of early motherhood, the heavy solitude of doing it alone, and the fierce, unmeasurable love that binds a mother to her child.

With every page, these poems reflect a woman's transformation-not just into a mother, but into something more: a warrior, a nurturer, a home. Honest, graceful, and tenderly powerful, Before the Cradle is a tribute to the strength it takes to raise a child with both hands and one heart.

This is for the mothers who carry it all.
This is for you.
